Physical Entities Field Descriptions
The following table defines the use the Physical Entities tab.
Name |
Description |
---|---|
Index |
Indicates the index of the entry. |
Descr |
Indicates the name of the manufacturer for the physical entity. |
VendorType |
Indicates the vendor-specific hardware type for the physical entity. Because there is no vendor-specifier registration for this device, the value is 0. |
ContainedIn |
Indicates the index value for the physical entity which contains this physical entity. A value of zero indicates that this physical entity is not contained in any other physical entity. |
Class |
Indicates the general hardware type of the physical entity. The value is configured to the standard enumeration value that indicates the general class of the physical entity. |
ParentRelPos |
Indicates the relative position of the child component among the sibling components. |
Name |
Indicates the name of the component, as assigned by the local device, and that is suitable to use in commands you enter on the console of the device. Depending on the physical component naming syntax of the device, the name can be a text name such as console, or a component number such as port or module number. If there is no local name, there is no value. |
HardwareRev |
Indicates the vendor-specific hardware revision string for the physical entity. If no specific hardware revision string is associated with the physical component, or if this information is unknown, then this object contains a zero-length string, or there is no value. If there is no information available, there is no value. |
FirmwareRev |
Indicates the vendor-specific firmware revision string for the physical entity. If no specific firmware programs are associated with the physical component, or if this information is unknown, then this object contains a zero-length string, or there is no value. If there is no information available, there is no value. |
SoftwareRev |
Indicates the vendor-specific software revision string for the physical entity. If no specific software programs are associated with the physical component, or if this information is unknown, then this object contains a zero-length string, or there is no value. If there is no information available, there is no value. |
SerialNum |
Indicates the vendor-specific serial number string for the physical entity. The value is the serial number string printed on the component, if present. If there is no information available, there is no value. |
MfgName |
Indicates the name of the manufacturer of the physical component. The value is the manufacturer name string printed on the component, if present. If the manufacturer name string associated with the physical component is unknown, then this object contains a zero-length string. If there is no information available, there is no value. |
ModelName |
Indicates the vendor-specific model name identifier string associated with the physical component. The value is the part number which is printed on the component. If the model name string associated with the physical component is unknown, then this object contains a zero-length string. |
Alias |
Indicates an alias name for the physical entity that is specified by a network manager, and provides a nonvolatile handle for the physical entity. The software supports read-only and provides values for the port interface only. |
AssetID |
Indicates a user-assigned asset tracking identifier for the physical entity. This value is specified by a network manager, and provides nonvolatile storage of this information. Because this object is not supported, there is no value. |
IsFRU |
Indicates whether or not the physical entity is considered a field replaceable unit.
|
MfgDate |
Indicates the manufacturing date of the managed entity. If the manufacturing date is unknown, then the value is '0000000000000000'H. |
Uris |
Indicates additional identification information about the physical entity. Uris is not supported, therefore there is no value. |
